    Breek handguards

    Ok, so I'm looking for a free float handguard on a budget and I want to know if anyone has used these. If so, what was your impression on them. Airsoft crap or decent quality? The one I'm looking at specifically is this...

    Is this upper any good?

    Alright, here's the deal. I'm looking into building my first AR and I don't know too much about them. I'm looking at an upper from palmetto state armory. I know that there are better brands, but I'm on a budget. Anyways, here's the one I'm looking at...

    Price check on Para

    Alright, I have a para "big hawg" double stack 1911 I got off my brother that I'm looking to sell. The thing is, I have no earthly idea on how much these things go for. It's in perfect mechanical condition, but does have one scratch on the external finish. Nothing big, but you can see it...

    Cattaraugus information

    I've been looking for a Cattaraugus 225q WWII knife on eBay, and I keep encountering knives listed as Cattaraugus 2250. Is there such a knife, or is it people misreading the model number?

    Glock 27 gen 3 or 4

    So I've decided that the glock 27 is going to be my next pistol purchase. I've researched it and there's no talking me out of it. The only problem I'm having now is figuring out which generation to get. I've heard of gen 4 glocks throwing brass in your face, but other than that is there any...

    Conversion barrels

    I have seen that there are a few different companies that make conversion barrels that turn your 40 into a 9mm or 357. Why can't you go from 45 to 40 or smaller? Is it a pressure issue or what?

    Why peep sights?

    Alright, I know that this might seem close to blasphemy to some of you guys, but I HATE peep sights. I can't hit crap with them. I grew up shooting with the regular old post and notch type sights(not sure what they're actually called), and that's the type that I like. I've been thinking about...

    1911 thumb safety

    I have a Springfield 1911 GI model that I bought around 7 or 8 years ago. A couple of months ago, the tube in between the thumb safety and the slide stop(sorry, don't know the technical term for this) has worked itself loose on one side, so now when I put the safety on, the little pin that...

    I finally decided on an xd(m)

    I've been back and forth on buying a "plastic pistol", and have finally decided on getting an xdm 3.8 compact. Now I'm torn on what caliber to get. I've already got 1911s in .45, so I was thinking about the 9mm because I don't have one yet. I got to reading though, and it looks like if I bought...

    New England Firearms question

    I have New England Firearms single shot 12 gauge that I got about 15 years ago. I've been thinking on sending it in to get a .223 barrel for it. Does anyone know how much it would cost? They still do that, right?

    Polymer pistol

    I've always been a 1911 guy, but I've been thinking about taking the plunge and getting a "plastic pistol":uhoh: for carrying. I've handled my buddy's glock (I think it was a model 19?), but I really didn't like the way it fit my hand. I've been looking at the Springfield XDm 3.8 compact and I...

    Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless Question

    I know there is 4 grip materials that they produced: ivory, pearl, hardened rubber, and walnut. Also, they produced grips with and without Colt emblems. They manufactured the gun for forty two years. Can anybody tell me what years the different patterns of grips were produced? Example; walnut...

    Remington Scoremaster 511 date?

    So I just bought a Scoremaster 511 and I'm wanting to know when it was made. On the left side of the barrel right above the reciever is stamped EA with some kind of design that I can't make out right after that. Since they were not produced after 67, there's not a serial # on it, but I read...

    Question about a colt 1903

    Me and a friend were talkin about the colt 1903 pocket hammerless pistol and we were wondering if you could swap the barrel and magazine from a 32 acp to a 380 acp. Can y'all tell me if this is true or not?

    Does anyone make a J-frame .44 special?

    I've always been interested in this rounds capabilities when being handloaded, and I think it would make it just that much better to be able to pocket carry the thing. Any help would be appreciated, and i'm sorry if this has been asked before. I used the search but couldn't really find...

    Lever-Action 357

    I want to get a carbine in 357 so that I can share ammo. What kind of accuracy can I expect out of one of these? Would it be powerful enough to take deer with? What is the best brand, Winchester, Marlin, Rossi etc. I know I'm asking a lot, but any input would be appreciated. Thanks

    The best caliber for a pocket revolver?

    What would be better, a 38 or a 44 special? I plan on reloading for whichever I get, I'm just torn between these two. Are there very many small 44 specials worth talking about? I know that you could pretty much throw a stick in any direction at a gun shop and hit a small j frame 38, but not so...

    Hi Power vs CZ 75

    This question may have already been asked by someone else, but i couldn't find it. Anyways, I'm in the market for a 9mm, and I'm curious as to which one is better in terms of accuracy and reliability. Please don't suggest that I get a Glock. A buddy of mine has one and it's as uncomfortable as...

    Which revolver for pocket carry?

    I'm looking to buy a revolver pretty soon, and don't know which one to get. I would rather have a 357, but I know that shooting that hot of a round out of a gun small enough to fit into your pocket would be fairly painful, or so I've heard:confused:, so i guess I would settle for a 38. Any...

    Octagon barrel?

    Is there a purpose for the octagon barrel? I was looking in the local pawn shop at the lever-actions and was wondering why the ones with octagon barrels were so much more expensive. Do they do anything for the gun or are they just made like that to look pretty?
